Strange, new error in existing code

JakubMisek

phptools In short, random folders in vendor, that are not referenced in composer.json may be ignored.

I'll see if we index it correctly (we should, but we did not test it).

You can put anything anywhere, of course, it's PHP after all. But vendor is a special folder. It's a kind of folder that you can always delete, and composer install will restore it. The composer generates an autoload map mechanism and more. It is not common to put files in there "manually".

Alright, let me address it this way

Cannot ignore random folders

When you say "referenced" in composer.json, I assume you mean require and require-dev.
I don't think it is correct to ignore random folders, if I require package A and it requires package B, C and D, B, C and D are not going to appear in composer.json, but language server cannot just ignore B, C, D, correct?

Dev packages not placed in vendor manually

The reason I place my packages in /vendor folder is so that composer can help take care of putting them in the right place, it is completely automated. What I would say is to just treat my project like a normal one.

Anyway, I just checked again and I no longer have the red underline/strange error, will get back again if I do. Thank you.

phptools We're tracking vendor/composer/installed.json with all the packages resolved, including dependencies of dependencies.

Anyway, we should index all the additional folders, it's just not expected and not tested :) We are expecting something like described at https://stackoverflow.com/a/59757746/601646.

    "repositories":[
    {
            "type": "path",
            "url": "path/to/your/package",
            "options": { "symlink": true }
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "vendor/package" : "{version}",
    }

So it's all automated, symlinked, and handled by the composer itself. And the IDE knows the package is a development package.

phptools Right, so currently, we do ignore folders in vendor that are not listed in vendor/composer/installed.json.

That might cause some missing IntelliSense and false diagnostics.

Does composer autoloading work for symlinked packages?
